WrestleMania 35: 3 Potential opponents for Roman Reigns  

The next franchise player of WWE is back, and he is ready for action! Roman Reigns made his return two weeks back, and the MVP has informed The Universe that he is in remission. Post his return, The Shield has reunited, and they faced the trio of Drew McIntyre, Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley at Fastlane in a winning effort.

On RAW this week, we saw Reigns feeling a bit off, and he complained of a headache after he was attacked by Drew McIntyre. Despite being in remission, Reigns hasn't fully recovered from Leukaemia. The Big Dog's WM plans are still under wraps as it is the first time in around four years that he is not involved in some mainstream match.

His quick recovery has surprised many, and we won't be surprised if he takes on another main star at the 'Grandest Stage of Them All' this year too. Here are three superstars Reigns could face at WrestleMania this year.

#3 Bobby Lashley

Lashley's heel turn has helped him save his career in WWE

Bobby Lashley just defeated Finn Balor for the Intercontinental Championship, and there can be many reasons behind it. Roman Reigns can be one of the reasons. Reigns has just returned from battling Leukaemia, and WWE needs to push him slowly to the main-event scene as he still has to recover from the hideous disease.

The best way to keep him relevant, and to push him steadily together is to give him a mid-card Championship. Finn Balor is a babyface which makes it quite difficult, so maybe that's why WWE handed the championship to Lashley. This could lead to a typical heel vs babyface match at WM 35.

It will be a huge ticket seller because it will be his first singles match in a PPV after his return, and if he wins the IC Championship, then it will obviously catch a lot of headlines. If WWE is considering an IC Title match between the two of them, then they need to start building it up. Their previous match has received a lot of negative responses on YouTube. Maybe, they can redeem themselves this time.

#2 Kurt Angle

Angle will get a perfect retirement

On RAW this week, we saw that the Olympian announced his last match will be at WrestleMania. However, he didn't announce who he is going to face at the Show of Shows. WWE has messed up the return of many veteran superstars, and Kurt Angle could top that list.

We have seen Angle lose to many mid-carders which throttles his credibility to new lows. The one way to mend his current return is to give him a good opponent who can build a good match with him at WrestleMania.

The top star in WWE is Reigns, and if he faces Angle, then it will give Angle a good retirement match. Reigns will be a perfect opponent for him as he needs an opponent and also, he needs to remain relevant on the Red Brand.

#1 Drew McIntyre

The Scottish Psychopath

Till December of last year, everyone thought that McIntyre is going to be the next big thing in Reigns' absence. There were several speculations that he was going to win the Royal Rumble match and face Lesnar for the Universal Championship. But, one match blew his credibility away. His first loss after his main roster debut came when Ziggler defeated him in a televised episode of RAW.

Since then, his trajectory is not worth watching. It has been falling ever since, and the only way to redeem it if he is handed a match against Reigns at WrestleMania. Currently, he can be considered as one of the main heels on RAW, and after this week's RAW, we can see that McIntyre and Reigns have a little feud going on.

McIntyre attacked Reigns viciously, and this angle can be taken forward till April 7th. McIntyre is in good shape, and he has good mic-skills too; a match with Reigns won't hurt anyone. Currently, it is the most viable option as it will only benefit both the superstars.
